Sugar Daddies

Three panel serie done last March 2013 for a collective exhibit in Lyon. B-movie festival "Hallucinations Collectives", along with artists Matthias Lehmann, Jean-Luc Navette, Nicolas Moog, Zerozedrip, Luis Safa and Sixo. Theme for the show was tackling the "white trash" subject matter, so i decided to approach the cultural and economical exchanges between white trash dudes and brown skinned girls...
Each panel was done with graphite, china ink and acrylic paint on masonite, the three drawings were realised in 25 hours within five days. the crappy quality pictures were done with a Sony DSC-W320, which does no better than an average cellphone at this point.

Skrotes & Boiling Point

Above: Preliminary sketch.

Artwork for a split seven inch vinyl record pairing the Skrotes from Portugal and Boiling Point from Slovakia. The skating zombie imagery was suggested by the bands. The record, released late 2012, had been co-produced by eight microlabels so it might be distributed and available near you if you live in the Eurozone.

Maximum RocknRoll

Just got my copies from the MRR September issue.
It includes a 4 page article about my works and my passion for violent hard core punk music within the french context of the late 80's until now.
The drawing used for the cover was inspired by some manga, used for an unofficial Lip Cream t-shirt designed and screen printed at two copies back in 1991, old stuff...

Manila Signings - Sputnik

Some views from the signing.
Sputnik is a nice tiny shop selling mostly U.S. and Filipino indie comics, some local zines, as well as toys and figurines.
Definitely a cool place to hang out on week-end evenings if you happen to visit Metro Manila.

Some samples of the Philippine fanzine production...

Book Signing in Manila

Can't really update this blog for the moment. But thing is there will be two book signing sessions planned in Metro Manila, Philippines.

First one will be happening at Comics Odyssey, third floor or Robinson's Mall at Ortigas, on Saturday March 26th.
Second one occurs the next week at Sputnik, Cubao X, formerly known as the Marikina Shoe Expo, on Saturday April 2nd.

There will be copies of No Comment and War Songs sold there, unfortunately in very limited supply.

Here's a small vid that was broadcasted on the French TV back in January 16th, even if it lasts 2 minutes and sixteen seconds, it may take some time to load on some computers...
